Welcome to Moosters Meadows - home of Irish Dexter Cattle! We strive to breed a truly dual purpose Dexter, providing both excellent beef and milk. All of our Dexters are purebred and registered with the American Dexter Cattle Association (ADCA). We'll be blogging about what goes on here on our little ranch in Wyoming and life with Dexters. Feel free to visit our website as well.

Isn't she beautiful?  Once again, our wonderful Fawn has graced us with another heifer!  Last year we posted that Fawn always gives us lovely carbon copies of herself - and it looks like she's done it again.  Based on first "feel" we think this little girl is polled as well (thanks, 'Dance!).  She's a full sister to show girl Yanni.

Two more to go - Belle and Mulgwen.  We keep thinking that Mulgwen should calve soon, but she's making us wait.  Belle has at least another week to go and it could be as long as three.  Then we're done until fall.  It's going to be a busy halter training season this year!

It's time to start thinking about getting Yanni and Carnival ready to go to the ADCA's Show and Sale this year in Fort Wayne, Indiana (they aren't for sale, but we are showing them).  It's a long ride, especially pulling the trailer, but we know we'll stop overnight in Missouri to let the girls (and us) rest for the night.  It's a bit over 20 hours for us to get there, but we think that others are coming even farther than us!  We just turn it into our vacation and enjoy the ride!
